I don't believe I've ever seen a pro team fouling intentionally down that many points as Dallas was against Minny.Calling timeouts and setting up plays with 1:10 to go and intentionally fouling the last three minutes down no less than 14 to 17 the whole time.Man,that's tough to handicap.Yeesh!
Fouling down 17?
- Thread starter edludes
- Start date
and dallas had actually started pressurizing the ball with 3 mins left .. eeesh .. fouling down 17 points .. i and my roommate could not believe our eyes .. the under looked good till they started fouling ..
damn ..

are you fu$%ing kidding me. Just got home a few minutes ago. I'm looking at the game log in the Dallas game. 24 points in the final 3 minutes? Is this correct??? WTF is this shit? Dallas can't go under...talk about ridiculous. I think they must bet their overs every game.
dragon see my post in the Ez thread .. thought we had the cat in the bag man ..
My roommate who was watching the game with me said that these guys must be paid something or must be betting themselves on the total thru someone ..
conspiracy theory ... possible ..
Spock ..
we all had the same play .. damn boys ..

unbelievable......i had lots of cash on Mavs tonight.........need to get rid of Finley.......chemistry is so much better without him and Nowitzki is the go to guy.......not enough balls out there for him and Nowitzki on the wing......
Did Big Dirk play tonight????
Did Big Dirk play tonight????
Heck.....the only name I heard during 2H was Billups.
Dirk with 9 points all night long and 4 of those from the free throw line.
You'd think after the 11-0 T-wolf opening 3rd period run....Nellie woulda thought hummm maybe we ought to guard the guy who just hit three 3's in a row!
No.....Billups goes on to get 25 points in the 3rd to the 20 for the entire Mavs team.
The Mavs deserved to lose that game.....but that over was totally uncalled for.

I can deal with someone getting hot like Billups did,but after he starts off the third quarter hitting three three's in a row his defender was still "helping" his teammates on d and letting him have open looks for apparently as many as he cared to shoot!This game was sure one to forget,and defines the exquisite torture that sportsbetting can be.Tomarrow we will all be back on the uptick.See you then.
Nowitzki is unsure of his role with Finley in there.......has tended to disappear as of late.....without Finley, this guy was just flat out one of the best offensive machines in the league.....if not the best.....certainly the best 3 man......
hard to play in his situation.......Mavs need to unload Finley.......

was Finley's 1st game back
was Finley's 1st game back
against the Clippers in Dallas? If so, I remember the Mavs were completely inept in that game. Ironically enough, they lost that game 117-100 as well when the Clippers ran wild on them in the 2nd half. Maybe I have games mixed up though.
I figured that it would take a few games for Finley to work his way back into the mix, similar to the way Webber had to when he returned to the Kings. The Kings were playing fantastic without C-Webb. When he came back, it took them a few games to re-acclimate themselves. Dallas can't seem to do that. Freeze brings up a very good point here. Might have to fade Dallas a little more often...

The Dallas OVER's are hitting somewhere around 70%.. I agree that this game SHOULD have gone UNDER.. I have never seen so many points in garbage time, with fouls, timeouts etc.. I had the OVER, so it put a smile on my face, but I know I stole that one.. Point being, we all know Dallas' style of play, their lack of "d", and playing the UNDER, anytime is risky biz..
Now, it seems like the books are finally catching up to this, and the totals are getting into the 210's +.. Guess I'll keep pounding those OVERs till the streak ends..
Dirk just looked LOST out there tonight.. He didnt even shoot that much, something like 2-7 before the 4th quarter, so its not like he couldnt find his shot.. Finley must bring out the worst in our German friend..

If you dont know that dallas and chicago (since cartwright took over) both do strange things like that and do it often you might want to consider a different profession as theyve done it all year.

Jealousy rears its ugly head.One lost pick does not a season make,and your bad spirit and bad karma speak volumes about your persona.I'll take ten NBA under plays where I have 23 points left with 2:54 to go,with one team ahead by 16-17 points, and win AT LEAST six,seven,or eight times,which any professional knows is how to make money.You place yourself in a spot where the odds are slanted in your favor.YOU can bet on the possibility that an Asst coach might go haywire like Donn Nelson did,if YOU think thats the PERCENTAGE play,but that BS doesn't happen CLOSE to 50 percent of the time in that identical situation and therefore is not a winning or professional play.The pace of the game in question was clearly an under,and teams rarely,if ever,foul for three straight minutes down by 17 points regardless of what you say.Your hostility just makes you seem insecure and your attempted slam only serves to prove you don't understand everything there is to know about sportsbetting quite yet.
